DATE CHANGE - IBM Kenexa SaaS offerings - Discontinuance ofsupport of the TLS 1.0 SSL protocol and SHA-1 ciphers suites:

Dear IBM Customer,

We are writing as a follow up to a communication sent in November to remind you that IBM KenexaSaaS offerings will discontinue support of the TLS 1.0 SSL protocol and the following SHA-1 cipherssuites:

TLS_RSA_WITH_AES_128_CBC_SHA

TLS_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA

TLS_ECDHE_RSA_WITH_3DES_EDE_CBC_SHA

This move is to align with security recommendations for TLS/SSL, as well as industry-wide decreasedusage and acceptance.

Note: Phase one is now in the Staging environment as of March 8, 2018. Clients can now test theirbrowsers and integrations. Do remember the TLS v1.0 and weak cipher disablement for is scheduled tobe in the Production environment in June 2018. The time period has been extended to allow more timefor clients to complete any required actions.

This will be a phased approach, first implemented in Staging environments March 2018, followed byProduction environments in June 2018. This will be done during each environment's monthlymaintenance window. Select this link to review specific maintenance dates for your data center. Clientscan now test this in their browsers or integrations using their Staging environments. See How do youknow your Browser Supports TLS 1.1 or 1.2?

Note: Please direct this notice to the technical contact who manages any integrations so they can bemade aware of this update.

Page 7: © Copyright IBM Corporation 2015, 2018.media.kenexa.com/Training/TSBR/ReleaseNotes/IBM_Kenexa... · 2018-04-26 · This document pr esents changes, both visible and configurable,

SHA-Whaaaat?! What are these and how do they interact with my IBM Kenexa product?

TLS 1.0 SSL: TLS (Transport Layer Security) 1.0 SSL and its predecessor, Secure Sockets Layer (SSL), bothfrequently referred to as "SSL", are cryptographic protocols that provide communications security over acomputer network.

SHA-1: SHA-1 (Secure Hash Algorithm) forms part of several widely used security applications andprotocols, including TLS and SSL.

Together, SHA-1 and TLS 1.0 SSL are what makes secure interactions with other systems, (for example,integrations and APIs) possible.

Action May Be Required:

Alert of Change to Supported Browser Versions: Microsoft, Google, Apple, and Mozilla have allannounced that their respective browsers would stop accepting SHA-1 SSL certificates in 2017. Therefore,we are updating our supported browsers and versions accordingly.

If your users are accessing IBM Kenexa SaaS offerings using one of the latest supported web browserversions, there should be no action required.

Customers using the following browser versions and above will not be impacted.v IE 11 (Release Date : 11/2013)v Edge 12 (Release Date : 7/2015)v FF 24 (Release Date : 8/2013)v Chrome 22 (Release Date : 7/2012)v Safari 7 (Release Date :10/2013)

Browser Support differs for Talent Suite and BrassRing products. As a reminder, the most recentversion of the Talent Suite supported browsers are documented here and the most recent version of theIBM Kenexa BrassRing supported browser document is on the Support Portal.

Integrations and API (BrassRing and Onboard only): If you are using any inbound integrations to IBM(such as HR Status Update or Custom PSE Integrations) or calling any published APIs, you will need toensure that the tooling, software, and servers on your side (for example, a client-provided web serviceend point) support TLS 1.1 and/or TLS 1.2. To do so, we recommend working with your technicalcontact and/or any third party provider to make any needed changes within your staging environmentprior to the staging update in March. Once the update is complete, you will then be able to test instaging, as well as reach out to IBM Kenexa to troubleshoot any issues.

If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to reach out to your Executive Partner. We alsoencourage you to consult with your peers on the IBM Kenexa Discussion Forum We thank you for yoursupport as we work to improve our systems!

Sincerely,

IBM Product Support

In Internet Options, check to see if the Use TLS 1.1 orUse TLS 1.2 check boxes are selected in Advanced > .Explorer: Internet Explorer cannot display the webpage.Firefox: Secure Connection Failed.SSL connection error.

v If your browser does not have support for TLS 1.1 and/or TLS 1.2, check with your IT representativesin your organization for either updating your browser to the most current version that supports TLS1.1 and/or TLS 1.2 protocols or if your current version can be configured to add the support.

Visible ChangesThe current release of IBM Kenexa BrassRing on Cloud includes the following visible changes forBrassRing and IBM Kenexa Lead Manager.

Responsive ApplyThe current release includes the following visible changes for Responsive Apply. Visible changes alter theappearance or performance of the product without requiring any configuration. The changes areimmediately visible or available to users.

Responsive Apply - Error MessagingThis update improves the candidate experience by displaying informative page level errormessages in Responsive Apply Talent Gateways. When candidates apply for jobs, the page levelerror messages that are displayed for Work Experience and Education sections are notinformative. When a candidate provides more than one work experience or education, the pagelevel error messages that were previously displayed did not specify which field in these sectionshad an error and needed to be rectified. Starting this release, the page level error messagesprovide specific information about which field in which section needs attention. For example,when the candidate does not fill the job title field in the second work experience, the errormessage is now displayed as: Work Experience 2: Job Title - Required.

This behavior is adjustedduring release 18.03.05 and the job titles of all the jobs for which drafts were saved are displayedseparated by commas.

RTC Internal Reference # 99264

Previously, when a candidate saved a group of jobs as drafts, and one among the group expired,it was not notified to the candidate. This behavior is now adjusted.

This change is a user experience-based enhancement in Save as Draft feature of the CandidateZone. When a candidate saves a job application as draft, then returns to the Candidate Zone andsaves application as a draft for the same job before the first draft expires, the first draft is deleted,and second draft is retained. However, if the candidate saves a couple of drafts for the same joband returns to the Candidate zone after the first draft has expired and tries to access it via theSaved Draft reminder notification, an error message is displayed. Starting release 18.03.05, in allscenarios where the candidate tries to access a saved draft, the latest draft is displayed to thecandidate instead of an error message.RTC Internal Reference # 99429
